Effect of prolonged heating on the asphalt-aggregate bond strength of HMA containing liquid anti-strip additives : final report / by Tayebali, Akhtarhusein A.(Akhtarhusein Asgarali)(CARDINAL)272065; Knappe, Detlef R. U.(CARDINAL)286478; Mandapaka, Venkata Lakshman.; North Carolina.Department of Transportation.Research and Analysis Group.(CARDINAL)272064; North Carolina State University.Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering.(CARDINAL)307977;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 82-83).Final report;Performed by Department of Civil, Construction, & Environmental Engineering, North Carolina State University, sponsored by North Carolina Department of Transportation, Research and Analysis GroupIn this study, an attempt was made to determine the effect of prolonged heating on the bond strength between aggregate and asphalt that contained anti-strip additives (LOF 6500 and Morelife 2200). On account of the substantial decrease of anti-strip additive contents for both asphalt binders and mixes when subjected to prolonged heating, whether the loss of additive content due to storage and transport at elevated temperatures affects mix performance in terms of moisture sensitivity or not, was evaluated in this study. A series of tests, namely Tensile Strength Ratio (TSR) test, Contact Angle test, Pneumatic Adhesion test and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) test were performed, and the results obtained from each of these tests were compared to come to a reliable conclusion regarding effectiveness of the various tests for assessing the effect of prolonged heating on the adhesive bond strength. Results obtained from the TSR test clearly show that as the prolonged heating duration increased, the TSR values failed the limiting value of 85% as followed by North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) specification in as little as six hours and continued to further decrease with heating duration. Tests were also conducted on asphalt cement containing LOF 6500 antistrip additive using the contact angle goniometer, PATTI device and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results obtained in this study were inconclusive for the above mentioned three devices.

Do you fuel me?. by Findaway World, LLC.(CARDINAL)345268;

Bio fuels: What do animal dung in Israel and leftover cooking oils in North America have in common? Both are being used as bio fuels for powering industrial equipment and motor vehicles. Combine this with efforts to process coconut oil from Uganda and soy from Argentina and you have the hopeful beginnings for fossil fuel independence.Chemistry: battery technology innovations: The battery has been in use since the early 1800s but the last twenty years has seen the most incredible growth in portable energy storage technology. Today, batteries provide power and on-demand energy to much of our modern high-tech world from the small back-up battery in your computer to units large enough to power cars, trucks and space stations. This program will emphasize lithium-ion technology, as well as innovations in the storage and transfer of energy.Energy: biofuels from plants & algae: Our society has increasing demands for energy and fuel, so scientists are constantly working to increase the reliability and performance of renewable energy technology. A small percentage of renewable energy is created with biofuels. Common examples are ethanol and biodiesel. Ethanol is made from fermenting biomass, such as grasses, wood chips, poplar trees and select agricultural waste. Fermentation is the breakdown of sugar producing alcohol and carbon dioxide. This is the same process that yeasts and bacteria perform in making bread, beer, wine, and some cultured foods. Micro-algae are single-cell, photosynthetic organisms known for their rapid growth and high energy content, and are becoming an increasingly viable source in the production of liquid transportation biofuels. Using the sun's energy, these microorganisms combine carbon dioxide with water, creating biomass more efficiently and rapidly than terrestrial plants. Oil-rich micro-algae strains are capable of producing the feedstock for a number of transportation fuels (biodiesel, "green" diesel, gasoline, and jet fuel) while mitigating the effects of carbon dioxide released from sources such as power plants. This program investigates new technologies at algae facilites, and explains the processes behind their cutting-edge micro-algae to fuel processes.Energy: introduction to the basics: Energy is one of the most fundamental parts of our universe. We use energy to do work. Energy lights our cities. Energy powers our vehicles, trains, planes and rockets. Energy warms our homes, cooks our food, plays our music, gives us pictures on television. Energy from the sun gives us light during the day. Energy is defined as "the ability to do work." When we eat, our bodies transform the energy stored in the food into energy to do work. When we run or walk, we "burn" food energy in our bodies. But where does energy come from? There are many sources of energy. In this program we'll look at the energy that makes our world work. There are eight different forms of energy which are heat, light, sound, chemical, electrical, magnetic, nuclear and mechanical energy.Engineering: fueling a greener planet: Revolutionary changes are taking place in the automobile industry. The standard petroleum gasoline fueled engine has some new competition from gas-electric hybrids, electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, natural gas vehicles and even some automobiles that get some of their power from the Sun.Physics & engineering solar energy: Solar energy--power from the sun--is a vast and inexhaustible resource. In the broadest sense, solar energy supports all life on Earth and is the basis for almost every form of energy we use. This program explains the three primary technologies by which solar energy is commonly harnessed: photovoltaic (PV), which directly convert light to electricity; concentrating solar power (CSP), which uses heat from the sun (thermal energy) to drive utility-scale, electric turbines; and heating and cooling systems, which collect thermal energy to provide hot water and air conditioning.Science & engineering: solar energy: This program demonstrates how the power of the Sun is captured, transferred and stored to provide a multitude of uses. Learn some of the ways we use the sun to heat or cool our homes, provide transportation and make electricity.Ages 8-10.Grades 3-5.

McGraw-Hill's national electrical code 2020 handbook / by Hartwell, Frederic P.,author.(CARDINAL)652241;

"Updated to fully align with the 2020 NEC, this trusted on-the-job reference contains plain-language explanations, advice, and analysis for every provision. You will get discussions of the rationale behind specific rules that enhances your understanding of both meaning and application. This handbook features thousands of detailed diagrams and photos as well as in-depth discussions regarding controversial wording and actual errors, together with possible approaches to discussions with inspectors regarding how to cope with these issues. This book is not published by NFPA, and is therefore free to confront such topics head on."--Back cover."Written by a senior member of the NEC Code Committee, McGraw Hill's National Electrical Code (NEC) 2020 Handbook, 30th Edition is logically arranged and serves as a companion to the Code itself--the explanation for any topic lines up exactly with the applicable section in the Code. The book does not reproduce the Code, and therefore every column inch is devoted to explaining its provisions. You will get straightforward clarification of obtuse rules and vague language, enabling you to work efficiently and safely--and to achieve full compliance."--Back cover."Covers all significant changes to the 2020 NEC, including: reconditioned equipment, massived expansion of GFCI requirements, new receptacle coverage rules for kitchen islands and peninsulas, total revision of non-dwelling lighting load calculations, elimination of common enclosrues for service disconnects, exterior emergency disconnects, rules for stair towers, new EGC fill calculations for boxes, temperature limits for LFMC and LFNC, latest develpments for PV systems."--Back cover.Preface -- Introduction to the National Electrical Code® -- Brief History of the National Electrical Code® -- About the 2020 National Electrical Code® -- 90.
